[Samba] Account Administrator works for "net rpc info", but not for "net rpc join"
Hi, I'm using Samba 3.2.5 in conjunction with kernel 2.6.26-2-686-bigmem (Debian Lenny) and recognized that when setting up ldapsam:editposix in accordance with http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Ldapsam_Editposix it turns out that net rpc info -U Administrator on Linux box works as expected, whereas net rpc join -U Administrator yields NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE In the server log (file <ip-address-of-server>.log) I see ====== change_to_user: SMB user nobody (unix user nobody, vuid 100) not permitted access to share IPC$. [2009/10/23 17:19:00, 0] smbd/service.c:make_connection_snum(1086) Can't become connected user! [2009/10/23 17:19:00, 3] smbd/connection.c:yield_connection(31) Yielding connection to IPC$ [2009/10/23 17:19:00, 3] smbd/error.c:error_packet_set(61) error packet at smbd/reply.c(662) cmd=117 (SMBtconX) NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE ====== So, it seems like "Administrator" is mapped to "nobody" on the Linux side. I checked the Administrator account in LDAP using JXplorer to verify whether it's not only a smabaSamAccount, but also a posixAccount. It indeed is. Any idea what's wrong. Do I have to perform any additional stetps (right granting, user mapping, etc. for the Administrator user)? Do I have to create an additional root user in the LDAP database and then run "smbpasswd -a" for that user? Thanks in advance for any info.
